Laying a Foundation...back to basics

Wow another great start to the workweek weather wise. Sun is out, kids are at school and I'm ahead of the game thus far. Who could ask for more right?

I had a few thoughts over the weekend regarding life and so I am going to blog this morning about the importance of a strong foundation needing to be laid in anything you do. Whether it be financially with a budget. Whether it be a strong core for your sporting career or even in its simplest terminology...the foundation for your house being built.

According to Mr. Webster, the word vision is a thought concept or object by the imagination: a mode of seeing or conceiving. Building a clear vision of your life and where it is at is not only pivotal now, but lays the foundation for suture success. As you work towards your goals in life, your vision gives you the drive to succeed. Where else would the resiliency come from. Your vision should be inspirational in all aspects. To the point of obsessive.

I wanted to write on this because if your dream is to own a home one day, I want to know how bad do you want it? Is it a foregone conclusion or just a dream implanted by each generation to the next telling you you need to own a home? Will it become a reality or just another whisper in the dark?

4 key areas to making dreams a reality...

Personal Accountability
Most people do not like this subject. Most people I know value their independence and freedom.
But what if you knew that the successful people in life have accountability partners?
They use these relationships to strengthen and encourage each other.

Smart Goals
Maintain a journal on what you do each day to make the hopes and dreams a reality. When you make something front of mind, your subconscious works to make it a reality. Write your goals down, pin it to the mirror in the bathroom where you have to view it everyday. And most importantly, share it with a trusted advisor or friend.

Resolve
Perseverance is the key. keep at it and keep focusing and things become a reality. Take charge of your dreams and move in the right direction. Create your Blueprint for success.

If you want to own a home, surround yourselves with people that can help make it happen. Seek out a like minded Realtor that won't pressure you to buy now. Find one that will work with you and your time frame and your vision.
Find a Mortgage Pro who will guide you in all the steps necessary to make it a financial reality.
Find a Financial advisor that can help you create the plan that will make it a reality as well.

There are numerous other channels as well to take advantage of. The Internet has a billion answers if you look in the right places.

The bottom line it, if you want something bad enough, it will happen. Might not happen today or tomorrow, but somewhere down the line it will. Just have strength and resolve and follow the vision and advice of trusted people and you will achieve what you want.

There is a nice little motivational piece to start your week off with.
